Krisboats Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 Okay i put this in the best of the internet thread but i think it would be more greatly appreciated if it had a thread of its own. Individual clip of the big-ass wave I want to think he rides out of it at the end but i'm unsure, what do you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomm Posted August 19, 2006 Report Share Posted August 19, 2006 Surfing is one of those things I always wanted to learn but never got around to it - mainly 'cos I live miles from any waves, but still. Trailer was mad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MadChikken Posted August 19, 2006 Report Share Posted August 19, 2006 It really really is genuine fella, the whole film is crazy. They spend 3 years scouring the globe riding the biggest waves they can find, we're talking 70-100 feet high. The footage is absolutely sick, was totally blown away watching it. Must've cos Billabong an absolute fortune funding it all!M@ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mavic Posted August 19, 2006 Report Share Posted August 19, 2006 Seen most of that futage before its amazing, i would love to watch huge waves breaking i think there is something amazing about it, true power of the world but beautiful at the same time.

froggy Posted August 20, 2006 Report Share Posted August 20, 2006 (edited) I dont get it, I was in bondi beach for 2 weeks. One of Australias most popular surfing resorts.Anyway me and 2 other lads I was with bought surfboars for $80 each. We surfed like 2 days solid, like on the beach for 5 hours. I got used to it and managed to actually 'ride' a wave and kept it reponably constant. But all you can think about it not falling off, listening to the wave and watching where it's going not trying decking yer sen. There was some really good people there as well, they just do some spinny crap and deck them selfs. It's alright for a week, but then it got really boring and we sold our boards to some other backpackers well more of a trade, 3 boards for 2 24 creats of jd and coke and 1 24 creat of tooheys.It's like CLS or any trials rider doing some awesome line then falling off and decking himsen on the floor.I found it really boring just to watch as well. I guess it's just not for me. Edited August 20, 2006 by Adamm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Concussion Posted August 22, 2006 Report Share Posted August 22, 2006 Weird... That was kinda dissapointing. An hour and a bit to see the same, but amazing clip again! And where was Laird? Thought that was him in the intro.`Ride the Wild Surf` on CH4 / Extreme / Discovery was way better! Oh` well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
